Maryville Middle School

Today is the final last day of school for our fearless leader, Mr. Pitts! This wraps up 27 years in education, 25 at Maryville, and 19 as principal of MMS. What an incredible career! Being a principal is a hard job but he has done it was integrity and class. He will be missed!

Mark your calendars, Spoofhounds! A GREAT event put on by our friends at Mosaic! This is a free event for families that will promote healthy mental health wellness. Please plan on coming out to support a great cause, attend an event that will entertain your entire family, and learn about valuable resources available to our Maryville community.

MMS 7/8 grade bands performed at Worlds of Fun yesterday and recieved an Excellent rating! #Spoofhoundpride

Our Annual Maryville R-II Retiree Reception held on 5/17/2023 from 5:00-5:45pm in the entrance of the Performing Arts Center. Please come and help us say goodbye to some great educators and professionals.

Last night, our middle school students put on a fantastic performance at the MMS Soring Band Concert. A special "thank you" to Mr. Gilham, who conducted his final middle school performance. Enjoy your retirement, and thank you for all you've done for so many student musicians. You have helped develop true talent in so many!

The MMS bands sounded awesome tonight! We would like to say a special thank you and HAPPY RETIREMENT to Mr. Gilham! He has not only brought music to our kids but a lot of laughter to our school. Best wishes, Mr. Gilham!

The last day of school will be on May 19, 2023. Students will be dismissed early on this day. Here are the dismissal times: MECC/Eugene Field: 12:20pm MMS/MHS: 12:30pm

It is Staff Appreciation Week at Maryville R-II! It is hard to find a way to say "thank you" to a group of amazing teachers, coaches, paras, custodians, bus drivers, administrators, office assistants, and maintenance staff. It truly takes a remarkable team to create an incredible learning environment for our students. We are blessed to have this team at Maryville R-II. A special thanks to our parent groups, churches, and community organizations who have provided meals, decorated schools, and found unique ways to show how much our staff members are valued and appreciated. Maryville is a special place where greatness happens each day, because of the pride we have in our community and our schools. #spoofhoundpride
